  • Yield

    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

8 (6- to 7-inch) flour tortillas
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons mild honey
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/8 teaspoon cayenne
1 1/2 lb skinless boneless chicken thighs (about 6)
1 large plum, quartered, pitted, and cut into 1/4-inch pieces (1 cup)
3 scallions, trimmed and cut lengthwise into 2-inch-long slivers

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat broiler and lightly oil rack of a broiler pan.

    Step 2

    Stack tortillas and wrap in foil. Stir together hoisin, soy, honey, ginger, vinegar, garlic, and cayenne in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart saucepan.

    Step 4

    While chicken is broiling, put tortillas on bottom rack of oven to warm.

    Step 5

    Boil sauce until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes, then add plum and simmer, stirring, 2 minutes.

    Step 6

    Cut chicken crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.

    Step 7

    To eat, wrap up chicken, plum sauce, and scallions in tortillas.
